Abstract (en)

[origin: US2009253387A1] A system and method for wirelessly communicating using beamswitching is provided. A communications system includes a high-power signal cable coupled to a signal amplifier, a radio frequency circuit coupled to the high-power signal cable, and a control unit coupled to the radio frequency circuit. The high-power signal cable conveys a transmission signal produced by the signal amplifier. The radio frequency circuit includes a plurality of antennas, a passive network having a plurality of output ports and a plurality of input ports, each output port coupled to an antenna of the plurality of antennas, and a plurality of switches coupled to the high-power signal cable, each switch coupled to an input port in the plurality of input ports. The control unit produces the control signal based on a specified coupling of the high-power signal cable to the passive network.
